all the other things are same in java files as they are in when you create a new project using eclipse's suggestions. i just changed two files

fragment_navigation_drawer.xml

<RelativeLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
    xmlns:tools="http://schemas.android.com/tools"
    android:layout_width="match_parent"
    android:layout_height="match_parent"
    tools:context="com.android.apps.mobileclub.ui.NavigationDrawerFragment" >

    <ListView
        android:id="@+id/nav_list"
        android:layout_width="match_parent"
        android:layout_height="match_parent"
        android:background="#cccc"
        android:choiceMode="singleChoice"
        android:divider="@android:color/transparent"
        android:dividerHeight="0dp" />

    <ProgressBar
        android:id="@+id/nav_progress"
        style="?android:attr/progressBarStyleLarge"
        android:layout_width="wrap_content"
        android:layout_height="wrap_content"
        android:layout_centerHorizontal="true"
        android:layout_centerVertical="true" />

</RelativeLayout>

and in OnCreateView of NavigationDrawerFragment.java

View mainView = inflater.inflate(R.layout.fragment_navigation_drawer,
                container, false);
        mDrawerListView = (ListView) mainView.findViewById(R.id.nav_list);
        mNavProgress = (ProgressBar) mainView.findViewById(R.id.nav_progress);
        cHandler = new HttpClientHandler();

Please tell me Where im going wrong?

Thanks.

I think you import incorrect class. If you are using appcompat for backward compability you should use

import android.support.v4.app.Fragment;
import android.support.v4.app.FragmentManager;

Check this in your code maybe you missplaced this somewhere. If you are using FragmentTransaction you should check it too.
